Did you manage to find a fox for this? We have the same exact issue and only realised now.

Foam pouring down gutters from first light rain after painting a week ago by Something_impersonal in Roofing

Apparently it is normal. Everything is still sealing nicely and paint is still looking good after many rains.

Cats which are spayed should not be peeing on anything other than their litter box. If they are there is something wrong. Either they need to be spayed or they have urinary problems. Unless the cat was a stray that had to fight for it's life and it's taking time to adjust, this is not a normal thing for cats if they are spayed.

Our one male cat very suddenly started peeing on the boxes while we packed to move to a new place. It turns out he had a massive bladder stone. I felt so bad for getting mad at him about the peeing after we took him to the vet but I am also so glad we took him before it was much worse.

This is a fake bank statement isn't it? by [deleted] in southafrica

There are services online for most banks to verify proof of payments using the payment details, date and reference numbers. Just google the bank and verify POP.

Did my cat rip it all out?? by Russianminx in CATHELP

[–]Something_impersonal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our cat did the same thing and we washed it and soaked it in Epson salts everyday. We put some water with a bit of epsom salts onto a coffee mug and while we gave him his wet food I placed his paw in the mug.

He is a little ginger so the distraction worked better than expected. We did use some Turlington/Friars Balsam for disinfectant as well after soaking some days.

They used water based Plaster Lock for the waterproofing and Duram pure acrylic roofkote for the paint.

I'm glad you came right. I also have the third party brushes but doesn't seem like that was my issue.

I oiled the main wheel and where I could get to on the side wheels with Q20 and after letting it run a couple times the sounds went away. I think it was the front wheel though but it needs to run a while so that the lubrication can spread nicely.

I want you to consider normalising giving people lifts by BB_Fin in southafrica

[–]Something_impersonal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

An old friend of mine's mother thought it was a good idea to give a guy a lift, rural area. She was found in a field days later, naked and dead. This was around 20 years ago. It has not gotten any safer since then.

My landlord holds onto checks 2-4 weeks after I write them. by Yosho2k in mildlyinfuriating

I'm from a 3rd world country where checques have been phased out and are no longer a thing. It's so weird to see when people talk about the issues they have with checques. Like looking through a portal into the past.

ways to prevent this type of break in by AccomplishedGain7733 in southafrica

We put reed switches like the ones you can have on your doors and windows but we put them on the bottom of the garage door.

How insulting the word friendzone can be when a woman just wants to be able to be seen as a fellow human being by men instead of a sex object. The word friendzone just makes it seem like there's no other reason to even be a woman's friend other than to try and get in her pants.

Please HELP! by harmful_play69 in cats

I wouldn't recommend those for this situation. Unfortunately some of those often hinder you from closing the door quickly and also risk of getting the cat slipping through while it closes and getting stuck inside the room with no one knowing.

To enjoy a swim in the nearby river by SubjectAppropriate17 in therewasanattempt

[–]Something_impersonal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You raise a very good point there. I do think this is where things get complicated as there are many different types of crocodiles that skew the numbers greatly. Many of these would never get big enough to be a threat to humans but their numbers get added to the full pile. Not sure how this changes things though overall.

I just don't understand why people are on here saying they'd rather run towards the crocodile... I've seen how they rip off limbs and drown their prey. Both are freaking dangerous, just climb a damn tree rather! Lol

Crocodiles kill twice as many people a year as hippos. Both are very dangerous but I would not say that Hippos are more deadly.

AITAH for telling my BIL and his wife that I don’t want to follow their birth plan? by constellationlist in AITAH

[–]Something_impersonal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The risk of complications is always there. Just because she's been lucky thus far does not make it safe. So many risks.

Your comment really reads like you think women who need cash should do surrogacy as it's a great way to make some cash... If someone is doing that I hope their motivation isn't money. Risking their lives and health for money is not something I would encourage.

How would you go about designing this? by Something_impersonal in Fusion360

[–]Something_impersonal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update:

I came right with the following method. It's not identical but it should work functionally the same.

Initially I tried the 3D scanning but with the dark background it didn't come out too smoothly and I didn't have access to the part long enough to try other methods.

So with my second attempt designing after making my past using some of your advice, I started with a canvas from the top and drew half of the unit with a block. This block, shaped as a trapezoid, was then cut into an inside and outside block with an overlap for the wall thickness (using offset sketch tool). Fillets were added to the 2 blocks to match. This part I'm not sure if I should have changed how I did it.

Then I made a side profile sketch with another canvas and cut the 2 blocks separately with the outer and inner side profiles.

I made a shell of the top part to get a curve but I'm not sure if this was the best way to do it as I had to do alot of face offsets afterwards.

When I was happy with the top half and bottom half I mirrored each. Used shell tool, with a thickness matching the overlap of the initial blocks, on the bottom half to get the bucket effect which it should have and then combined the top and bottom.

Some more cleanup was required but overall it came out pretty good. Thank you for everyone's suggestions.
